Little context in Indiana Pittaway and the search for the Krystallos

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Indiana Pittaway and the search for the Krystallos, by Jac16888 (talk · contribs), another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Indiana Pittaway and the search for the Krystallos is very short providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles.

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Indiana Pittaway and the search for the Krystallos, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Please note, this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion, it did not nominate Indiana Pittaway and the search for the Krystallos itself. Feel free to leave a message on the bot operator's talk page if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot. --Android Mouse Bot 2 14:10, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

Notability of Dudley Concert Orchestra

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Dudley Concert Orchestra, by WWGB (talk · contribs), another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Dudley Concert Orchestra seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Dudley Concert Orchestra, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to leave a message on the bot operator's talk page if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself. --Android Mouse Bot 2 14:04, 9 July 2007 (UTC)

Edits to User_talk:Tankalot

Please refrain from editing my user talk page with meaningless comments such as: [1]

Please stop. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did to User_talk:Tankalot, you will be blocked from editing. User:Tankalot 16:00, 3 September 2007 (UTC)

YOur random post on my page is random again but a bit more sensible, still some way to go though. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Tankalot (talk • contribs) 10:03, 11 September 2007 (UTC)

Tidying up userboxes

Noticed your "this user needs serious help in tidying up his userboxes" post: the best way to do it is:

1. Follow this redlink and select "Create page";
2. Copy & paste the following into the blank page that comes up:

   __NOTOC__

   <div style="height: 600px; overflow: auto;">

3. Cut the userboxes from your userpage, and paste them (each on a separate line) at the end of the new document;
4. Copy & paste the following AT THE VERY TOP of your userpage:

   {|cellpadding="4" cellspacing="0" style="border:1px solid #cfcfff; background-color:#ffffff;" width=100%

   |

   {|style="border:1px solid #cfcfff; background-color:#eaf5fb; margin-left: .1em; margin-top:2px" align=right width=270px |align=center|

   ----

   {{User:Timothy Jacobs/Userboxes}}

   |- #::|}

This will move your userboxes to a scrollable box down the right hand side of your userpage & keep them all lined up. To add new userboxes, go to User:Timothy Jacobs/Userboxes and add them there, rather than to your userpage.

Hope that helps — iridescent (talk to me!) 13:11, 14 September 2007 (UTC)
